Dayton “Day” Ingram is recovering from an injury suffered in Mexico—and from his failed relationship with fellow Scorpion agent, Knight. While researching an old government document, Day realizes he might be holding the key to finding an artistic masterpiece lost since WWII.

But the Russians are looking for it too, and have a team in place in Eastern Europe hunting it down. Day and Knight are brought back together when they are charged with getting to the painting first.

Knight wants to leave Mexico and everything that happened there behind, and return to the life he had—except it wasn't much of a life. When he's partnered up with Day, keeping his distance proves to be challenging. But Day is as stubborn as Knight and isn’t willing to let him walk away.

Their assignment leads them through Germany and Austria with agents hot on their tail—agents willing to do whatever it takes to get to the masterpiece first. If Day and Knight can live long enough to find the painting, they might also discover something even more precious—each other.

This is the second book in the Day and Knight series. It was even better than the first. Day is gay. He doesn't advertise it but doesn't exactly hide in the closet. Knight has been married and lost his son and wife two years prior (read book one for more of this) He has been hiding in a bottle burying his sorrow until he was sent on a job with the young detective Day. This book picks up sort of where the last left off with Knight back to his wallowing. He is on a walk and comes home to two young boys robbing him. One he sends on his way after a scare but the other he sees potential and keeps him and puts him on his own type of community service working for him, doing odd jobs around the house and he pays him. This showed a bit of a different side fo night... more caring compassionate side.
Day is recovering from a shot in the shoulder. He is cleared for light duty but afraid his chances for field work are over. Knight comes to his rescue and the two of them once again go out on a job. This time it is to uncover some hidden paintings that could be real national treasures, and keeping the Russians from getting them first.
I love the mystery in these stories. It keeps twisting and turning. There is lots of action, drama, and suspense, with car chases, shootings, and all that good stuff as well a the hot sex between the two men as they develop more feelings.

I really loved Andrew McFerrin's narration. he gives each man enough voice you can easily follow the dialog. he adds the emotion and the pace is fantastic. He seeds up on the dramatic chases and slows down on the sexy times making the story evermore exciting. I sure hope there is another soon!

Review of Sun and Shadow

Id nearly forgotten how much I love Knights acerbic self and how well Day handles him. Day and Knight are true to form again in this wonderful, at times gritty and fast paced, and always yum story. I loved when stories bring in real worlds things like the tie into the real art theft of the WWII Nazis and the art destruction they brought. The fact art is still turning up and *fingers crossed* will continue to do so.
Watching as Knight tries his damnedest to continue down his self-inflicted spiral of pain and self-denial is hard, just as in the first, but no, its not a rehash, dont worry. Its all logical and very real. Very painful for Knight, and for Day as well. I hurt for them both as I turned the pages for so many reasons but loved every minute of it.
As for the mystery now that was fun! I love reading books like this. Love finding the clues and putting it all together, finding the goods, and saving the day (especially if we get to show up the bad guys while were at it lol). And yes, Im certain theres going to be more from Day and Knight as we as still left with more clues on the path of the mystery of who killed (ultimately) Knights family. I cant wait!
If you love love, you know this is for you, even though the happy isnt exactly traditional, lol. But the story is sweet, hot, powerful, and one of overcoming and coming to terms, of reality and realism. Dont miss this one! Period. Its a fun yet powerful read for any that enjoy a little adrenaline and mystery Winking smile
